Injury-hit Bayern Munich successfully brought forward the signing of Spain winger Bryan Zaragoza from LaLiga club Granada, the German club announced on Thursday.

The 22-year-old officially arrives on a loan until the summer, after which the previous deal, which runs until 2029, will come into effect.

Bayern paid a reported 19 million euros ($21 million) to sign the winger, which includes a four-million euro loan fee.

Bayern were under pressure to add to their attacking options, with forwards Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman expected to be out for several weeks with long-term injuries.

“In football you always have to be flexible and so we’ve reacted to the current situation,” Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund said in a statement.
